Equipment
- Muddler
- Citrus juicer
- Bar spoon
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup fresh blueberries
- 8-10 fresh mint leaves
- 1 oz fresh lime juice
- 3/4 oz simple syrup
- 4-6 oz club soda chilled
- 1 cup ice cubes
For the garnish(optional):
- fresh blueberries
- fresh mint sprig
- lime wheel
Instructions
- Add blueberries and mint to the glass, then muddle gently for fifteen seconds total.
- Pour in lime juice and simple syrup, then stir everything together really well.
- Fill the glass with ice cubes, but leave about one inch of space at the top.
- Slowly pour cold club soda over ice until the glass is filled to the rim.
- Stir the drink gently with a bar spoon for about five seconds to combine.
- Add fresh blueberries, mint sprig, and a lime wheel on top then serve immediately.
Notes
- Muddle your mint super gently, or it'll taste bitter instead of fresh and minty.
- Fresh blueberries give the best color, but frozen work fine if that's what you have.
- Taste as you go and adjust the simple syrup amount based on your sweetness preference.
- Make this drink right before serving so the fizz stays bubbly and refreshing throughout.
- Hosting a party? Just multiply everything by however many guests you're expecting and mix away!
